Sorry if it came across as TOO harsh, but soccer is a passion for many people in this country (and surprising even to me, quite a few Freepers as well :)

And I was still upset to watch the game, and then open up USA Today the next day and see one line on the contest.

If you had the chance (and the compulsion) to watch you would have seen the United States dominate a cynical, overmatched Mexico, who were still about to sneak away with an undeserved tie on US soil.

And while many nationals of other countries voice their disdain at US superiority, but thumb their noses at the US on the soccer field - hell yeah I'm going to be excited when we can dominate that international arena as well.

And then the final thrust with seconds left in the match. There is nothing like it.

Ok, so you just happened to love soccer with a passion. Fine with me. But I was trying to joke around. Note: "Trying" is the keyword in that sentence. ;-)) Meant no harm. ;-))
